In 1955, if you were 'driving Miss Daisy', this Cadillac Series 75 Fleetwood Limousine was the perfect choice. Chauffeuring a wealthy spinster or a sitting president, this car offered all the amenities of status. With a curb weight of just over 5000 lbs, it was powered by a 250 HP 331 cid V8, and back in the day I would always hear, "Yeah, but once you get that baby rolling...". Elvis owned one of these black beauties which sold for $172,000 back in 2011.
Model by Danbury Mint.

What a gorgeous automobile and model ! It is especially elegant in gleaming black. This probably isn't the car you would just hop in with your t-shirt and shorts to just zip down to the local Burger King to get a hamburger and fries !

Rich, Please forgive my nit picking. This glorious Cadillac is a Fleetwood Series 60. Sedan. Series 75 was the limousine. The model was made by Franklin Mint.

The Mints didn't give us many 4-door cars, so when this Cadillac was issued, I happily purchased two. After a while it didn't make much sense to have two black Cadillacs, so about three years ago I repainted this one Copper over Goddess Gold. The brown interior worked very well with these colors.

Pete, over the top color choice and application. Had TFM issued this option I would have been a buyer.

I know that a number of Forumites have commented that they aren't enamored with the tan interior on this black beauty but I like it very much.
